Aren't you doing it this summer? Three reasons to convince you

The hot summer is here. What good ways can we use to cool down in the summer? Choosing to practice yoga is a very good way. Why? Let's take a look at what is attractive about choosing yoga in summer.

1. Reasons for Yoga

In summer, correct yoga practice can open the pores of the skin, allowing sweat and dirt in the body to be discharged smoothly, regulating body temperature, eliminating heat, and protecting the body's yang energy. Yoga combs and massages the internal organs, the seven meridians and eight vessels, making the whole body unobstructed, balancing the qi and blood of the whole body and making the body feel comfortable.

2. Reasons for bikini

The weight loss effect of yoga can help us save the bikini that has been neglected because of the "life buoy" around the waist.

The time has come! Let us begin to fall in love with cool yoga, fall in love with the prosperous season, fall in love with the feeling of sweat flowing through the body, and fall in love with our own devilish figure!

Cooling effect: The posture is simple and easy to learn. You should be calm and move slowly during the practice. Focus on the movement and stretching of your body to gradually calm the irritability in your heart.

Effect: Increase the flexibility of the whole body, regulate endocrine, treat skin diseases such as acne and scabies, and make the skin rosy and smooth.

Posture: Stand upright, spread your legs as far as possible, point your left toe forward, point your right leg to the right, and open your arms to both sides, parallel to the ground. Inhale, stretch your waist to the right, and slowly move downward, touching the back of your right foot or the ground with your right hand. Raise your left arm with your palm facing forward and your eyes fixed on your left hand. Keep your arms in a straight line. Try to twist your waist to bring your chest forward and maintain natural, deep breathing.

3. Reasons for Traditional Chinese Medicine

“The three months of summer are called the time of growth and proliferation, when the qi of heaven and earth interact, and all things blossom and bear fruit,” the Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine says about summer. It means that in summer, the sun shines down, the ground heats up, and the qi of heaven and earth merge. Summer is the season with the strongest Yang energy and abundant vitality.

Plants bloom and bear fruit, and all things flourish and become beautiful. The body's Yang energy radiates outward, while Yin energy is hidden within. Qi and blood flow vigorously and are active on the body's surface. The advent of air conditioning allows us to pretend that we don’t care about the four seasons, but our bodies still enter summer on time and operate according to summer rules. Therefore, Chinese medicine reminds us that in summer, we should pay special attention to protecting the yang energy in the body and not harm the yang energy in the body because of greed for coolness.
